Re: git bisect not accepting -git kernels

Hi,
Thanks for both the replies.

Hello,

git version 0.99.8.GIT

this doesn't match

'# dpkg -l | grep git' shows ' git-core 1:1.5.2.3-1'

This struck me as being weird, but I thought 'git' utility version is 
different than the package. My mistake! :)

that. Maybe you should build your own git packages. Lucky you that it is
pretty easy with debian. Have a look at this thread:

I didn't build my own git version. What I did do was to remove the old 
git and ensure I am using the Debian installed one.

Now I am getting a different error :
root@amit:/usr/src/linux-git # which git
/usr/bin/git
root@amit:/usr/src/linux-git # git --version
git version 1.5.2.3
root@amit:/usr/src/linux-git # git bisect good v2.6.22-rc6
root@amit:/usr/src/linux-git # git bisect bad v2.6.22-rc8
fatal: Needed a single revision
root@amit:/usr/src/linux-git #

A quick search on the net didn't yield anything. Please help me find out 
what's going wrong.
Thanks and Regards,
